Hiya im going to be taking erythromycin 250mg and it says on the packet to take 1 tablet 4 times a day spaced between 6 hours. I was told to take 2 in morning and 2 at night so im wondering if 2 250mg tablets to make up 500mg is ok to do or should I space the doses out? ## Hello, Jessica! How are you? The normal dosing is every 6 hours, so they'd be evenly spaced and taken 4 times a day. However, if your doctor instructed you to do otherwise, then you should follow their instructions.

Hi, I have been on oralcon for the past few months. I had unprotected sex 2 days ago, and then went to the doctor for a UTI and she put me on erythromycin (an antibiotic), and I know that antibiotics may negate the effects of contraceptives but I just wanted to know if there is a chance that I may end up falling pregnant as a result of being on the antibiotics now (even though I won't be having unprotected sex for the next 2 weeks). My concern is over the unprotected sex I have already had and whether I will still be covered in terms of contraceptives.

Is it okay if I use Althea Pills eventhough im 17 years old and im a boy, just to treat my pimples? is there a side effect on me? ## Hello, Del! How are you? No, they will not do anything for you, except cause problems. These are hormonal based contraceptives that are formulated for women, so the doses in them are far too high for men, unless they want to start developing female characteristics, such as breasts, losing chest and facial hair... you get the picture. You need to consult your doctor and get something appropriate for you to use to treat your acne. What have you tried, so far? ## my acne problem started when i was 14 years old and i tried so many products for acne and creams for my face, and i already visited dermatologist but nothing of those recommended cure for my acne did...

Please see this as a hypothetical question in regards to having access to just several gastro-resistant pills in an isolated setting where swallowing them as usual would be too short a course to be effective and breaking the pills would allow the stomach to destroy them. I would like to know if this is a viable way to administer a measured amount of the antibiotic once powdered. I'm asking that, if necessity required it, whether nasal inhalation, insertion under the prepuce or perhaps applied to the rectum would be effective. ## Yes, hypothetically it would be effective. However, rather than powder it yourself, in most countries you can get liquids or suppositories of antibiotics to take. The FDA lists the typical side effects of antibiotics as possibly including nausea, dizziness, ...

Is it "erythromycin" - an antibiotic, or it is "lortab," a muscle relaxant? ## This is an Erythromycin antibiotic tablet. Learn more Erythromycin details here. Lortab, however, is not a muscle relaxant, it is a narcotic pain reliever. Learn more Lortab details here.
